Hmmmm.....I looked at the sketch when I woke up from falling asleep in my favorite chair last night, but had promised myself an early night. So I woke up with it still on my mind this morning, got ready for work super fast,(they won't notice that my pants aren't ironed today - it could have happened on the way to work cuz it's ferocious outside) and went to see what I had already stamped on an oval in my stash. This is the sketch as I remembered it in my dreams. I had to make it square to accomodate my mother of all ovals here, and then I knew it had a border at the top and bottom, so please forgive me if I strayed out of friendly territory but I think the main elements are here!! (Are there REALLY SCS police???) Happy Wednesday everyone- Life at work is so much more interesting if I can take a peek while I sit on hold with insurance companies.........yahoo!! OKAY, so now it's work time- I'm "peeking" and I see I really did screw up the sketch....sorry everyone....I'll be more careful next time!! But I really did make this puppy myself this morning, with the "right" sketch in mind!!...It's my mind that's the problem.......OKAY SINCE MY MIND IS IN TROUBLE ALREADY I WILL LISTEN TO BONNIE MY FRIEND AND JOIN THE TEAPOT MADNESS!! HERE IS WHAT YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT MY DRAGONFLY.......
"DIEDRE" - THIS DRAGONFLY IS RELATED TO DARLA THE DRAGONFLY AND SHE HAS FOUND THE VERY FAIREST FLOWERS OF THEM ALL, BUT IS SELFISHLY HOARDING THEM INSTEAD OF TELLING HER DRAGONFLY FRIENDS. DINGLE BELL BERRY CAUGHT HER IN THE ACT OF HOARDING AND HAS GONE BACK TO TELL ALL THE DRAGON FLIES THAT THE PRETTIEST FLOWERS OF ALL HAVE BEEN DISCOVERED AND SHE IS ABOUT TO DIS DIEDRE AND CALL HER OUT ON HER HOARDING...AND MAKE HER SHARE THE ELEMENTS OF STYLE FLOWERS.....WHICH ARE THE FAIREST FLOWERS OF THEM ALL. IS THIS MADNESS ENOUGH TO MAKE ME A TEA POTTER? ARE YOU PROUD OF ME BONNIE????

So pretty! It turned out so nice! Love that black panel and the way it's embossed! The ribbon just pops and I am still wondering if I can ever get that fast at finishing a card!
